...a little peek into my week.

28 November 2009

This week at Hotchpotch has been BONKERS, I can't remember the last time I saw so many tiny hands and feet being painted with cold paint then pressed onto cold pottery it must be absolutely not nice! I would hate it now! But what a lovely christmas present. I wish I'd had Mimi & Jo done before they turned into big people. I'm not sure I even have a piece of pottery big enough to do it, although.......come to think of it,it would make a great present for me! I may just do it...I will take a photo of the finished plates (platters even!) when I've persuaded them to do it!

Holiday shoes! The huge sage green crocs belong to Jo and theburnt orange crocs covered in jibbits belong to Mimi. MrBB loves his green & orange ones and mine are of course the sandy, lime ones embellished with a little butterfly. I love my crocs and live in them.... barefoot in summer and woolly socked in winter.

It's past my bedtime now and I need a bath to warm up my feet..brrrrrrrrrrrr it's cold up north!

Holy moly how hard can it possibly be to design a little blog and start writing a paragraph or two about my day....D'ya want to know?......very!!

Is it my age?... I am after all 'middleaged' Urghhhhhh that's scary.

Am I not the sharpest needle in the sewing box?.....apparently not!

Anyhoo I digress,what I actually wanted to talk about was the wonder that is food shopping online, I ordered my shopping on Wednesday whilst playing on my laptop and had it delivered by a delightful man this evening!! It was BRILLIANT! So that's me sorted now,I shall do this every week, my pantry shall overflow with loveliness and my family shall not starve.

I am an artist, illustrator, knitter, hooker & cooker...forgetful mother to a pair of teenagers & always adorable wife of mostly adorable Mr BB. I own a paint a pot art cafe called Hotchpotch in the Yorkshire countryside a Lakeland terrier called Archie & a bike! I love all things that are beautiful, practical and handmade.
